Adds employees of school districts to the list of allowed employment for members of the general assembly
This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to allow members of the Missouri General Assembly to work as employees for school districts without losing their legislative seats. Currently, state law prohibits legislators from accepting employment under the state, but this change would create a specific exception for school district staff positions. The amendment aims to clarify that holding a job with a school district does not require a legislator to vacate their office or forfeit their salary.
